In commit 8ead9dd5 ("devpts: more pty driver interface cleanups") I made devpts_get_priv() just return the dentry->fs_data directly. And because I thought it wouldn't happen, I added a warning if you ever saw a pts node that wasn't on devpts. And no, that warning never triggered under any actual real use, but you can trigger it by creating nonsensical pts nodes by hand. So just revert the warning, and make devpts_get_priv() return NULL for that case like it used to.

Commit e647b532 ("ACPI: Add early device probing infrastructure") introduced code that allows inserting driver specific struct acpi_probe_entry probe entries into ACPI linker sections (one per-subsystem, eg irqchip, clocksource) that are then walked to retrieve the data and function hooks required to probe the respective kernel components. Probing for all entries in a section is triggered through the __acpi_probe_device_table() function, that in turn, according to the table ID a given probe entry reports parses the table with the function retrieved from the respective section structures (ie struct acpi_probe_entry). Owing to the current ACPI table parsing implementation, the __acpi_probe_device_table() function has to share global variables with the acpi_match_madt() function, so in order to guarantee mutual exclusion locking is required between the two functions. Current kernel code implements the locking through the acpi_probe_lock spinlock; this has the side effect of requiring all code called within the lock (ie struct acpi_probe_entry.probe_{table/subtbl} hooks) not to sleep. However, kernel subsystems that make use of the early probing infrastructure are relying on kernel APIs that may sleep (eg irq_domain_alloc_fwnode(), among others) in the function calls pointed at by struct acpi_probe_entry.{probe_table/subtbl} entries (eg gic_v2_acpi_init()), which is a bug. Since __acpi_probe_device_table() is called from context that is allowed to sleep the acpi_probe_lock spinlock can be replaced with a mutex; this fixes the issue whilst still guaranteeing mutual exclusion.

When the ACPI_DECLARE_PROBE_ENTRY macro was added in commit e647b532 ("ACPI: Add early device probing infrastructure"), a stub macro adding an unused entry was added for the !CONFIG_ACPI Kconfig option case to make sure kernel code making use of the macro did not require to be guarded within CONFIG_ACPI in order to be compiled. The stub macro was never used since all kernel code that defines ACPI_DECLARE_PROBE_ENTRY entries is currently guarded within CONFIG_ACPI; it contains a typo that should be nonetheless fixed. Fix the typo in the stub (ie !CONFIG_ACPI) ACPI_DECLARE_PROBE_ENTRY() macro so that it can actually be used if needed.

Łukasz Daniluk reported that on a RHEL kernel that his machine would lock up after enabling function tracer. I asked him to bisect the functions within available_filter_functions, which he did and it came down to three: _paravirt_nop(), _paravirt_ident_32() and _paravirt_ident_64() It was found that this is only an issue when noreplace-paravirt is added to the kernel command line. This means that those functions are most likely called within critical sections of the funtion tracer, and must not be traced. In newer kenels _paravirt_nop() is defined within gcc asm(), and is no longer an issue. But both _paravirt_ident_{32,64}() causes the following splat when they are traced: mm/pgtable-generic.c:33: bad pmd ffff8800d2435150(0000000001d00054) mm/pgtable-generic.c:33: bad pmd ffff8800d3624190(0000000001d00070) mm/pgtable-generic.c:33: bad pmd ffff8800d36a5110(0000000001d00054) mm/pgtable-generic.c:33: bad pmd ffff880118eb1450(0000000001d00054) NMI watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#2 stuck for 22s!

Commit fec1d011 ("[PATCH] Disable CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID for abnormal exit") has caused a subtle regression in nscd which uses CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID to clear the nscd_certainly_running flag in the shared databases, so that the clients are notified when nscd is restarted. Now, when nscd uses a non-persistent database, clients that have it mapped keep thinking the database is being updated by nscd, when in fact nscd has created a new (anonymous) one (for non-persistent databases it uses an unlinked file as backend). The original proposal for the CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID change claimed (https://lkml.org/lkml/2006/10/25/233): : The NPTL library uses the CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID flag on clone() syscalls : on behalf of pthread_create() library calls. This feature is used to : request that the kernel clear the thread-id in user space (at an address : provided in the syscall) when the thread disassociates itself from the : address space, which is done in mm_release(). : : Unfortunately, when a multi-threaded process incurs a core dump (such as : from a SIGSEGV), the core-dumping thread sends SIGKILL signals to all of : the other threads, which then proceed to clear their user-space tids : before synchronizing in exit_mm() with the start of core dumping. This : misrepresents the state of process's address space at the time of the : SIGSEGV and makes it more difficult for someone to debug NPTL and glibc : problems (misleading him/her to conclude that the threads had gone away : before the fault). : : The fix below is to simply avoid the CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID action if a : core dump has been initiated. The resulting patch from Roland (https://lkml.org/lkml/2006/10/26/269) seems to have a larger scope than the original patch asked for. It seems that limitting the scope of the check to core dumping should work for SIGSEGV issue describe above.

__printk_nmi_flush() can be called from nmi_panic(), therefore it has to test whether it's executed in NMI context and thus must route the messages through deferred printk() or via direct printk(). This is to avoid potential deadlocks, as described in commit cf9b1106 ("printk/nmi: flush NMI messages on the system panic"). However there remain two places where __printk_nmi_flush() does unconditional direct printk() calls: - pr_err("printk_nmi_flush: internal error ...") - pr_cont("\n") Factor out print_nmi_seq_line() parts into a new printk_nmi_flush_line() function, which takes care of in_nmi(), and use it in __printk_nmi_flush() for printing and error-reporting.

Firmware Assisted Dump (FA_DUMP) on ppc64 reserves substantial amounts of memory when booting a secondary kernel. Srikar Dronamraju reported that multiple nodes may have no memory managed by the buddy allocator but still return true for populated_zone(). Commit 1d82de61 ("mm, vmscan: make kswapd reclaim in terms of nodes") was reported to cause kswapd to spin at 100% CPU usage when fadump was enabled. The old code happened to deal with the situation of a populated node with zero free pages by co-incidence but the current code tries to reclaim populated zones without realising that is impossible. We cannot just convert populated_zone() as many existing users really need to check for present_pages. This patch introduces a managed_zone() helper and uses it in the few cases where it is critical that the check is made for managed pages -- zonelist construction and page reclaim.

Some versions of gcc don't like tests for the value of an undefined preprocessor symbol, even in the #else branch of an #ifndef: lib/test_hash.c:224:7: warning: "HAVE_ARCH__HASH_32" is not defined [-Wundef] #elif HAVE_ARCH__HASH_32 != 1 ^ lib/test_hash.c:229:7: warning: "HAVE_ARCH_HASH_32" is not defined [-Wundef] #elif HAVE_ARCH_HASH_32 != 1 ^ lib/test_hash.c:234:7: warning: "HAVE_ARCH_HASH_64" is not defined [-Wundef] #elif HAVE_ARCH_HASH_64 != 1 ^ Seen with gcc 4.9, not seen with 4.1.2.

Using "make tinyconfig" produces a couple of annoying warnings that show up for build test machines all the time: .config:966:warning: override: NOHIGHMEM changes choice state .config:965:warning: override: SLOB changes choice state .config:963:warning: override: KERNEL_XZ changes choice state .config:962:warning: override: CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE changes choice state .config:933:warning: override: SLOB changes choice state .config:930:warning: override: CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE changes choice state .config:870:warning: override: SLOB changes choice state .config:868:warning: override: KERNEL_XZ changes choice state .config:867:warning: override: CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE changes choice state I've made a previous attempt at fixing them and we discussed a number of alternatives. I tried changing the Makefile to use "merge_config.sh -n $(fragment-list)" but couldn't get that to work properly. This is yet another approach, based on the observation that we do want to see a warning for conflicting 'choice' options, and that we can simply make them non-conflicting by listing all other options as disabled. This is a trivial patch that we can apply independent of plans for other changes.

If kexec_apply_relocations fails, kexec_load_purgatory frees pi->sechdrs and pi->purgatory_buf. This is redundant, because in case of error kimage_file_prepare_segments calls kimage_file_post_load_cleanup, which will also free those buffers. This causes two warnings like the following, one for pi->sechdrs and the other for pi->purgatory_buf: kexec-bzImage64: Loading purgatory failed ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 2119 at mm/vmalloc.c:1490 __vunmap+0xc1/0xd0 Trying to vfree() nonexistent vm area (ffffc90000e91000) Modules linked in: CPU: 1 PID: 2119 Comm: kexec Not tainted 4.8.0-rc3+ #5 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS Bochs 01/01/2011 Call Trace: dump_stack+0x4d/0x65 __warn+0xcb/0xf0 warn_slowpath_fmt+0x4f/0x60 ? find_vmap_area+0x19/0x70 ? kimage_file_post_load_cleanup+0x47/0xb0 __vunmap+0xc1/0xd0 vfree+0x2e/0x70 kimage_file_post_load_cleanup+0x5e/0xb0 SyS_kexec_file_load+0x448/0x680 ? putname+0x54/0x60 ? do_sys_open+0x190/0x1f0 entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x13/0x8f ---[ end trace 158bb74f5950ca2b ]--- Fix by setting pi->sechdrs an pi->purgatory_buf to NULL, since vfree won't try to free a NULL pointer.

There have been several reports about pre-mature OOM killer invocation in 4.7 kernel when order-2 allocation request (for the kernel stack) invoked OOM killer even during basic workloads (light IO or even kernel compile on some filesystems). In all reported cases the memory is fragmented and there are no order-2+ pages available. There is usually a large amount of slab memory (usually dentries/inodes) and further debugging has shown that there are way too many unmovable blocks which are skipped during the compaction. Multiple reporters have confirmed that the current linux-next which includes [1] and [2] helped and OOMs are not reproducible anymore. A simpler fix for the late rc and stable is to simply ignore the compaction feedback and retry as long as there is a reclaim progress and we are not getting OOM for order-0 pages. We already do that for CONFING_COMPACTION=n so let's reuse the same code when compaction is enabled as well.

Commit d837a49b ("ovl: fix POSIX ACL setting") switches from iop->setxattr from ovl_setxattr to generic_setxattr, so switch from ovl_removexattr to generic_removexattr as well. As far as permission checking goes, the same rules should apply in either case. While doing that, rename ovl_setxattr to ovl_xattr_set to indicate that this is not an iop->setxattr implementation and remove the unused inode argument. Move ovl_other_xattr_set above ovl_own_xattr_set so that they match the order of handlers in ovl_xattr_handlers.
